Ajax are considering buying a new striker as Arsenal loanee Yaya Sanogo is failing to make the grade at the club, according to reports.

The Dutch club had reportedly sized up a bid for Danish forward Pione Sisto over the summer, but went for Sanogo instead after being priced out of a move.

And according to Soccer News, Sanogo has been unable to cope with the demands placed on him at the Amsterdam ArenA, and has been given until November to prove that Ajax don’t need to buy another striker.

Sanogo’s loan deal is supposed to run for the whole season, but Ajax could look to end it early.
